Sunset Limited
Who's in it? Samuel L Jackson, Tommy Lee Jones
Rating 4 out of 5
The plot The thinking man's drama tells the story of an ex-con (Jackson) who saves a professor (Lee Jones) from throwing himself in front of a train. They then sit down and have a discussion about life, and that's the movie. It's lucky these two actors are so dang watchable.

Rating 2 out of 5
The plot In this B-grade Western, Val Kilmer plays an aged Wyatt Earp (a real life law officer in frontier towns in the 1900s), and while he's interviewed by a reporter we go into flashback mode to unravel the legends that still surround the deadly gunman.
